Now that President Obama has won the November 6th election for a second term over Mitt Romney, us conservatives are forced to listen to liberal troublemakers endlessly spout how we should just accept that Obama has 4 more years and we should move on and get over it. They say that the general election proved that the President now has a mandate to implement his socialist policies. Nothing could be further from the truth.

No, President Barack Hussein Obama does not have a mandate to do anything even though he is talking like he is king of the world in his latest press conference. Even though he won the electoral college by a landslide and won the popular vote by more than 3 million votes he does not have some so-called mandate.

Here's why:

The population of the United States is approximately 311 million men, women and children.

Of those 311 million, 217 million are eligible to vote.

Obama received approximately 63 million votes.

That means Obama received about 29% of the eligible votes available.

That means 29% of eligible voters or 20% of the people in the United States controlled the choices of all of us.

Despite all the efforts of both candidates there were 7 million less votes cast this time around then there were in 2008.

I don't know who President Obama or the liberals think they are, but these results tell me that there are a whole lot of disgruntled people in the United States that don't want to cast a ballot for either candidate.

Of all the eligible voters in this country, 154,400,000 of them did not vote for President Obama. He does not have a mandate.

This is why we need term limitations. 8 years of anybody in offices is more than enough. It would help curb a lot of policies that does nothing for our country, like sending military equipment to radical rebels and money to them. Look how much money he has given to Egypt and the Palestinians.

Even the Communist Russian News Paper- Pravda said, that obama was re-elected by an illiterate society! it had to have been, if not through cheating and fraud. Although I believe it was a combination of All of that! The majority of blacks voted for him because he’s black. The majority of hispanics voted for him because he promised them amnesty. The college students voted for him, because they are useful idiots thinking they know it all, even though we know its very little what they do know. Then the single mothers who count on government handouts as well and the despicable women on the left, who are only interested in getting government funded planned parenthood ABORTIONS and so called Contraception, which is still only about Abortion, and now want to FORCE that on everybody else! YES I’D SAY: PRETTY DAMN ILLITERATE IF NOT DOWN RIGHT STUPID AND RETARTED!

I’d go easy on the whole “illiterate” society comment. If you take a look at the states with the lowest education levels, they are Red States. If you disagree with things here, you could always go back to Germany.

So this make a whole lot of sense. The smart people who knew what was going to happen went to the voting booth to save our Country. Those who were not as smart sat home and stuck us with Obama another four years. I am not sure who is more intelligent the ones who officailly voted for Obama for cell phones and pizza or the ones who didn’t vote at all and gave us four more years of the same old crap.

RID OBAMA NOW HE DID CHEAT AND SOME ONE NEED STAND UP AND SPEAK U OBAMA GET OUT OF WHITE HOUSE AND FIRE HIM NOW ONT BE AFRAID OF OBAMA. OK PLEASE END OBAMA BACK HOME TO KENYA HE IS FRAUD PRESIDENT PERIOD PLEASE RID OBAMA NOW.

I believe it was a combination of all the wrong things. Sure, Obama has his supporters, so he got their vote. He also convinced, by lying, some people who were on the fence, so he got their vote. Some people, who’ve been democrats all their lives, simply voted along party lines, no matter who would have been their party’s candidate, so he got their vote. Add to that the illegal immigrants, the voters who’ve been dubbed “low-information”, the welfare recipients, and throw in all the votes obtained through voter fraud, and he got all of those votes. Add it all up and of course he won. He’s a liar, a cheat, and hasn’t done a day’s work in his life, but unless we can impeach him, looks like we’re stuck! Aside from that, about all we can do is take back the Senate and retain the House in the midterm election.

Not only does the president not have an agenda he is unwilling to work wuth congress to address the national dent. Instead, he is using scare tactics and demogaugery to make his point. He has shown no leadership during his tenure as preisdent the mainstream media has given him a pass on everything from Fast and Furious to Benghazi to sequester. The American public needs ot demand more from Baracki and the media.

I’m still surprised that these business leaders and really smart people forget the realities of life. If their business sells less than will cover the bills, they make cuts. If they lose their jobs and don’t have enough income they make sacrifices. Yet once they get into office, they forget these fundamentals. Maybe we need to examine the stupifying effect of being elected.

Alan, thank you for the article! Never quite looked at it that way and you bring up a very interesting point! Although it’s not really hard to figure out what the overall consensus is in America because most everyone I speak to about Obamnation feels like they were lied to…..AND even my Liberal friends are now starting to admit that their vote for Obamanation isn’t what they thought! MUSIC TO MY EARS!

Barry (obama) only had 100% of the votes in 59 precincts in one county in Ohio, you know that really happened. We have Al Capone running the country, except Capone wasn’t trying to destroy the country. Also you libtards that can’t offer any credible evidence, MOVE THE HELL ON!

It’s time to write Legislation Legislating our Legislators, time to reel them in and let Americans decide how much they get paid, how much they work, retirement, medical, meetings they must attend, etc. By the People for the People as the Constitution says it should be done! Time to take these Dictators down a notch and put them in the working class where they should be! Like if you agree!

I may be wrong, but if you look at just the popular vote, the split between King O and Romney was about 50.4% to 49.6%. Hardly a mandate, especially when you count all those who didn’t vote (to their detriment, (by the way – they should not be complaining. If their guy didn’t win, a lot of the blame is on their shoulders.)

The only thing that even approaches Justice when tyrrany raises its ugly head is this. Those that have been decieved through misinformation, indifference, appeasement, a sense of revenge instituted through change, lack of true appreciation of LIBERTY FOR ALL or just plain cowardice will be the FIRST to be SWALLOWED by it. The rest of us will DEFEAT it or go down trying. GIVE ME LIBERTY OR GIVE ME DEATH.

I don’t believe he was re-elected at all, I believe it was all rigged, just like the first time. I heard they were announcing him President again and the votes weren’t even all counted. Seems to me, they think they can do what they want and as long as the sheeple continue to be dumbed down, it’s going to stay this way. I pray that AMERICA WAKES UP!

NH didn’t vote for him. No doubt he took this state by voter fraud. the 2 most populated counties in the state went; 1-romney and 1-ovomit (by 3000 votes). on election day my town alone had 2000 new voter registrations (btw county #1). both counties border mass. a state who allows illegals to drive. 2 weeks before election I received mail for a person I never heard of. turns out he lived in another district in my town for 26 yrs and died in march 2012. so for 26 yrs I never received mail for him.. just in the election yr. when I called the town I was told the only way that person could have voted is if someone used his name to register the day of voting. guess how I found out when he died, internet. it showed, when, where he lived and even telephone. the mail I received came from chicago.

Conservative News what you are trying to use the number of people that did not vote to prove a Jerry rigged point. Something that has never been did before. You ignore that Obama is the first president in a very long time to will back to back presidential elections by more than 50% of the votes. If you want to be news, unlike FOX try the truth. Republicans got their hind parts handed to them as they even got over a million votes less in all the house races. And the little cry babies need to put on their big girl panties grow a set and stop bitching.

Rick do you really think that with the agenda obama has for america, makes him give a flying flip about you. he,s a muslim and your as big an infidel as anyother american in the United States. Don’t ever forget that because if you live long enough he will show you that all he needed from you was your dumb vote, and blind ignorance.

Rick they have proof that there was lots of voter fraud people even admitting to voting up to 6 times for obama and as I am glad I didnt vote for him I for one feel that he should be inpeached for his already numerous illegal actions and ll demoacrats should be thrown out of office if they are not for the people they took an oath to defend and uphold the constituion and the bill of rights when they took office they have breached their contract therefor they should all be fired without further pay of our tax dollars and I am sure I am not the only person in the United stated that feels that way further more they should all go to prisin for their parts in the illegal acts obama is not king and never will be he is not my daddy either the only daddy I claim is is our creator

WHY do we keep PRETENDING that this election was not stolen? Ovomit didn’t REALLY get all those votes. How could MORE THAN 100% of voters vote for him in certain places in CO? There was TONS of evidence of voter fraud so let’s STOP pretending he won fair and square….he cheated. That’s how he won. NOT BECAUSE THE MAJORITY wanted him to win. They only tell us that MOST of the country wants him so we will all sit back and let him destroy America, believing it is what the majority wants. I don’t buy it for one second and neither should you!

I have reached a conclusion since 2008, no body wants that job as president. Both McCain & Romney held back & deliberately gave oblamalado the keys. Would anybody step up to the job that idiot took on? He’s window dressing and taking full advantage of it in his little mind.

Da Hook Ron Paul wanted the job and would’ve taken obama out, but the media purposely would leave him out of everything even though he would win or be in second in polls etc! the reason is he scared the establishment, the corporations and the govt.

there was voter fraud we all know that. It was as obvious as the nose on your face. That doesn’t take away from the fact that we could have sent him packing with his lovely none american wife . It is to bad you realize things to late but people you shot yourself in the foot. Now it is time we who need to stand up stop this travisty of a government and stop the Congress from taking anymore out of our pockets than they have. Let your voices be heard from every hill and valley to make sure they do not obscure our Constitution or Country anymore than they already have.

Linda I agree let’s start a movement to get something done about it – we can’t sit back and do nothing, I won’t stand for that this man has to be stopped.What can we do as Americans? He needs to be impeached for Bengazi!

@ Tracy Scarpello do you know the definition of refute? And did you research Romney or just accept the liberal view that RICH=EVIL? Obama loves rich people that hold his values. I have worked as a Union Pipeliner since 1979 and am an ex-marine. My union supported Obama, I OPENLY DO NOT. Here is the REASON I DID NOT VOTE. I live in OKLAHOMA. I know the people of this great state and they lived up to what I knew them for. He didn’t win one single county here. As long as the electoral college determines the winner many people will not vote in the Presidential elections. I could call many of my union brothers that did not vote for the same reason. some would also say that they had NOBODY that they trusted in the running. POPULAR VOTE would fill the ballot box as it has never been filled before. As it is now the only way we see our vote making a difference is if we take up residence in a state whose majority of voters want to elect the candidate that we oppose. NO THANKS, do not need neighbors that think like you.

Let me get this straight, you work in a union, you were in the military, and you went to a public school? Republicans HATE unions, the military is the largest socialist program in the country, and you went to a school funded by the people. You may need to reevaluate your strategy.

Oh thank God! There are only 29% of morons in this country and I would bet from the voter fraud that number is down around 18% Whew I was worried all this time thinking half or more were morons! GREAT NEWS! Thank you! And forever God bless America!

Me before the 2012 election: “Are the American People this damn stupid and ignorant to re-elect Obama after the first four years of his destruction?” Me after the 2012 election: “Apparently, the American People ARE this damn stupid and ignorant!” Obama “targeted” the “low information voter” and was counting on them to re-elect him! Says a lot about how “pathetic” AND “apathetic” this Nation has become! IT SPEAKS VOLUMES!

Everyone tells me that didn’t vote for him. Some are either cowards and won’t admit it or don’t want others to know how stupid they are. Some voted multiple times so yes it was fraud. I believe he was appointed.

The low information voter will be sorry when they have sub-standard medical care and the price of all their groceries goes sky high. Most of the nitwits that voted for him thought his policies wouldn’t affect them. Bulletin dummy’s…. it’s already begun. Many never voted and that was a vote for obama. Think about the impending loss of the rest of your rights. Look at the stuff DHS(dept of Homeland Security is amassing. Over 7 thousand tanks, Fema interment camps , about 1 and a half billion bullets(many of them hollow points), drones. These are for use against Americans because they assume that when this country starts failing the people will start a revolution and that’s also why they want all the weapons. WAKE UP people. If they give amnesty to all the illegals it will be the beginning of the end. On the brighter side….aliens will no longer want to come here when the economy totally tanks. oh by the way hollow point bullets are used to kill not wound. Check online if you are skeptical.

By reading some of this bull that liberals ar spwing, they seem to want a dictator, king, or whatever. We have checks and balances in our government so all people can be represented. Because Obama won does not mean he gets to do whatever he wants. If you believe he should then pull off your pants and take it like a man because you are a slave to the liberal party!

The point here is simple. He won by ONLY 3 million votes. That’s less than half the people who live in New York City. It’s the number of people who live in an average sized city in the USA. How anyone thinks that by winning by such a small margin is a mandate or a majority is foolish. You can spout your electoral college nonsense all you want. What would be wiser is to go by popular vote. And winning by only 3 million votes hardly puts him into the most popular category. He received a million less votes this time than last time. That should be a fact worth looking at also.

To Rick Taylor, Don’t forget Wyoming. It is funny how dead people vote. But your right. Now I will watch his continued destruction of this country go on. Funny thought. When the legal gun owners and first admendment is stripped. The side that I am on will see to his impeachment and prosicuted. But! One thing is for sure he cannot be re-elected. As for your Nov W bush comment. Do you not know now obozo has put our country in twice the debt than W Bush. What promises has he kept? So. ahe has lied and corrupted the Fed Gov. So, I can believe he commited voter fraud.
Praise your GOD for being elected. Take a fool to know one.

the scary thing is he can’t be voted in a 3rd term (unless he manages to change that too) but what he can do.. VP under someone else. if the clinton puppets aren’t done.. dumbass hillary could run and have ovomit as VP. seeing how the clintons bow down to the current dictator, who would really be in control?

I cant wait until he takes office after the New Year look at already what has happened , Man and you all that voted him in thought you seen it all well he just getting cranked up he hopeing to at least double the debt he left with for your children man these are going to be some good times , he passed the NDAA LAW it live in 2013, AGENDA 21 will be also along with he re-nigged on the NRA of taking of what kind of guns he going to take better look it up for all you gun lovers out there who voted for him but my FAVORITE IS THE DEBT HOE HE GOT US IN AND HOW MUCH MORE HE CAN DESTROY GIVE IT HELL OBAMA GIVE IT HELL FOR ALL THAT VOTED YOU IN HEY MAN DESTROY IT WHY STOP AT THE TREE WHEN YOU CAN TAKE OUT THE WHOLE FORREST!

HEY RODNEY HE WILL BE STOP ONE WHY OR ANOTHER HIS POLICEY WILL NOT FLY WITH GUN CONTROL GOD AS MY POWER MY WORDS WILL NEVER STOP AS LONG AS I CAN HIT THE KEYS AND PUT OUT WHAT I KNOW ABOUT THIS CRITTER WHO LIVES IN THE PEOPLES HOUSE AND HIS THUGS ALSO.I UNDER YOUR ANGER I AMTHERE ALSO.

Yes I do. When he mentions how many voters are eligible vs. voters that actually voted, that is where he lost me. If eligible voters don’t vote it doesn’t mean anything except that lots of people are lazy and count on others to do for them what they should do for themselves. If Obama beating Romney doesn’t equal Obama’s mandate, then it CERTAINLY does not equal a Romney mandate.

Tracy, I OBVIOUSLY never said it was a Romney mandate, please! And just because people don’t vote does not mean they are lazy, the truth is FAR from that. Many of these voters simply did not vote because they are fed up with the show that goes on in Washington and they see neither candidate as trustworthy. You still did not refute anything!

Does any one have a current poll about the people’s sentiment about the Affordable Care Act? Last time I heard it was over 60 against. Hardly a mandate! Just another example of liberals thinking we are stupid and that THEY know what is best for us. I don’t live in New York City, so I am going to go out today and do something I don’t normally do and buy a 52 ounce soft drink just because I can! That doesn’t mean I’ll drink it, but I am also stimulating the economy ever so slightly!

Hey, maybe I took it wrong. I too am seriously sick of the usual bs. I have been voting 3rd party for years. The only reason I voted Obama this time is that I absolutely do not trust Romney even 0.5%. Also, people had choices to vote 3rd party this election. If a person doesn’t vote, it really is lazy in my opinion. It is your vote and your responsiblity to use it. If you can’t vote for anyone on the ballot, write it in. If your numbers include non-voters, I don’t see how we can find a common ground on what happened in this election. But I don’t disagree with where you are coming from now that I see what you are trying to say.

@[116933681791119:274:Conservative News] To help you out…I am not one of those lazy people… When my husband and I moved to our home in Arizona I thought we both registered to vote. Well when we showed up at the polls hubby got his in and mine wasn’t registered. They say mistakes happen! Hubby voted Romney… I would have as well! My son didn’t get to vote in Texas but he isn’t for Obama either… WE are out here for sure!

Try again–what it means is the intelligent voters are sick of the status quo and did not want to vote for either party…Obama is a socialist—We the People do not want socialism nor do we want crony capitalism….we need to get back to the constitution, personal responsibilty, and end the “politically correct” mentality.

Tracy Scarpello you say you trusted Gov Romney .5% so that means; based on performance; truth, honesty and vetting by the media; you trusted Pres Obama 95%? Really? And this is a case for 3rd party? No my friend; it is a case to re-elect failure; and ensure neither 3rd party OR anything they stand for; and that is just idiotic. There were 5 points Gov Romney planned to do: 1: Repeal Obama care; and in the very least; defang it by blocking appropriations in funding. Imagine the scenario with only a Dem House. How would that landscape change the debt ceiling debate; budget discussions, Supreme Court appointments and tax policy? With all due respect; you and those like you are worse than the low information voter; because you knew the action you were taking would bring failure to your principals and you selected it anyways……Thank you for your complicitness. And with all due respect Rick and any other liberal who would suggest that 3% of the population is a mandate; neither was it considered so after the 2004 election GWB did not conduct himself so egregiously against his opposition; indeed we got Medicare Part D and many progressive spending in those years. Never have you ever heard GWB utter that his opposition “was the enemy” or “get to the back of the bus – even in his first term. No. A slim majority is NO MANDATE. Further; NO AMERICAN voted for 80% of their taxes to increase. EVery promise made in the election, ACA would cut deficit (will add $3 trillion and bankrupt the nation is now the GAO warning) you can keep your doctor, $2 trillion has been cut (double counting war spending that is transfered to other spending as savings – talk about funny math) like in “Its A Wonderful Life” America is now muttering; Gee what Gov Romney proposed would actually HAVE worked…….Gee America you might have actually HAD a Wonderful life; now we are in for bankruptcy……Great job.

IN 2004 Bush’s 286 e votes was a mandate. In 2012 Obama’s 332 isn’t Your hypocrisy holds no bounds. Now which of my facts do you wish to refute? Or does truth hurt? Twist it any way you want Obama won the popular vote the Electoral Vote and the most states. Of the people that voted 50.6% to 47.8, 62,610,003 to 59,133,398, Romney and his cons lost every way he could The American people spoke and you still want to bitch. You lost get over it.

Rick, it is too bad that liberals never like to look at specific facts. You did not refute any of the facts presented in this article. If out of 217 million eligible voters only 63 million vote for Obama, THAT is not a mandate because it does not represent ALL of the voters. Do you understand that? And you comment about the Tea Party is another typical liberal tactic of denigrating and tearing down the messenger without any facts. Is it the best liberals can do to just name call?

You want to imply that the people that didn’t vote would be on your side thats a lie. Whites vote far more than minorities, be thankful more didn’t vote or you would lost even worse than you did. Oboma got over 50% of the people that voted. He won in every way he could . Care to refute it?

Rick, where did I say everyone that didn’t vote would be on our side. I never said that. Don’t put words in my mouth. All I’m saying is of the 217 million eligible voters, guess what, 154 million didn’t vote for Obama. I know Obama won by the way.

You implied that because these people didn’t vote, Obama didn’t have a mandate. Well 154 million didn’t vote for any Republican either. So we must go with those that did vote. And over a 100 vote win in E votes is a mandate like it or not. And for you to try to use these people to falsely prove your biased point of view is not only misleading it is morally corrupt Romney lost, Republicans lost and even in the HoR that Republican still got less votes than liberals. America is turning more liberal and by 2016 even TX will be a swing state, and even people in your party knows Republicans either change or the GOP dies. There is no place in America for the racism, bigotry, greed and hate, that Republicans/ CONS/ tea baggers support get over it and MoveOn
